The Unlimited Power Within
| |
| An unlimited power to create lies within you. When you act on your Core Desires, the outcome is often far grander than you might imagine. "Outcomes are often not what I expect," said Wally, "and yet I always find myself feeling completely satisfied with the way things work out. When you have faith in the outcome, no matter what it may be, you cannot stop yourself from living and working with enthusiasm. As I put what I feel into action, I am filled with vitality and happiness."
When Wally was forced out of his own cookie company, it seemed utterly unfair. But he refused to be a victim: |

Do You Control Your Email or Does Your Email Control You
| |
| Recently while discussing time management issues with my business coaching clients and others, the topic of email and the amount of time we all spend dealing with business (and non-business) email at work. Those discussions gave impetus to this article.
Do you ever wonder how many email boxes are in use by organizations all over the world? 100 million? 200 million? According to statistics I read in a recent article, there were an estimated 225 million email boxes in use in 2005 by organizations in the world. Did I hear someone say WOW!

Estee Lauder Bonus
| |
| When Estee Lauder first began growing what would today become one of the largest retail beauty companies in the world, she was met with much resistance. Managers of department stores turned down her persistent requests for store space, while advertising agencies rejected her business because of the company’s small size – the two-person operation of Estee Lauder and her husband Joseph were not enough to convince people of their legitimacy. However, those years of rejection served as the impetus for the Estee Lauder Bonus, which would help the company grow to new heights both then and now. |

1.2 From Copenhagen to the Millennium Declaration: Working Out of Poverty
| |
| In 1995, the Copenhagen Social Summit put the “people’s agenda”
back into the forefront of international policy.
By stressing the interlinked
challenges of poverty, unemployment and social exclusion as central to a
global social justice strategy, the Social Summit marked a turning point for
the multilateral system.
It reinforced the ILO mandate in the world of work
and gave new impetus to the promotion of core labour standards. |

Government Support for Entrepreneurship in Nigeria : Exploring entrepreneurship in a declining economy
| |
| Recognizing the indispensability of the small-scale, private sector enterprise as the dynamic impetus for general economic development, many countries have instituted enterprise support networks and structures to fuel the development of these enterprises. Nigeria is not an exception in this regard. At various times since the 1970s, the government has designed and introduced a variety of measures to promote small and medium enterprise development. These measures included fiscal, monetary and export incentives. |

How to Avoid the Pitfalls of Micromanagement.
| |
| Are you constantly checking the work of your team members? Are you a perfectionist?
I define micromanagement as:
Often unintentionally, a micromanager delves into too much detail. Rather than allowing people the responsibility and freedom to do their job, the micromanager monitors and reviews every task. This obsession with detail causes resentment, affecting staff performance in a negative way.
Micromanaging causes frustration. In the end, it can provide the impetus for staff to leave. |

Double Marginalization and the Decentralized Supply Chain
| |
| Double marginalization is defined as the “exercise of market power at successive vertical layers in a supply chain.” Dating back to Lerner (1934) the problem that arises as a result of double marginalization is tied to an impetus to mark up the product’s price above marginal cost. According to a 2005 Caltech paper (Vertical Integration of Successive Monopolists: A Classroom Experiment) the sequence of mark-ups “leads to a higher retail price and lower combined profit for the supply chain than would arise if the firms were vertically integrated.” |

Double Marginalization and the Point of Ideal Price Viability
| |
| Referencing my last post (Double Marginalization and the Decentralized Supply Chain, August 9, 2007) double marginalization “DM” is defined as the “exercise of market power at successive vertical layers in a supply chain.” The problem that arises as a result of DM is tied to an impetus to mark up the product’s price above marginal cost. The sequence of mark-ups “leads to a higher retail price and lower combined profit for the supply chain.” In short, DM drives the paradoxical outcome of higher buy prices with lower sell profits.

Technology's Diminishing Role in an Emerging Process-Driven World (Part 1)
| |
| Organizations that already have a technology driven program in place or have just recently implemented one still surprise me with their significant interest in the dramatic changes in procurement methodologies and practices. But rather than focusing learning on new and emerging technologies, today's procurement professionals seek insights into the actual processes that drive their enterprises. The impetus behind this change is largely the result of the fallout from the consistently high level of e-procurement initiative failures. Industry studies for the period 2001-2005 indicate 75-85 percent of all programs fail to achieve the promised results. |

Developing Your Business Plan
| |
| Why Plan for a Business That Already Exists? There are plenty of reasons.
The ability of a small business to react quickly to market impetus gives you a substantial advantage over your larger competitors. However, resources in a small business that are in short supply must be used to their fullest potential. This makes such businesses highly vulnerable to failure if their progress and development is not tightly controlled. A business plan provides a vehicle for the strategic planning and continuous monitoring of your business - allowing you to avoid the pitfalls of haphazard growth, such as cash flow starvation, reduced profitability and loss of custom. |

Attitude at Work
| |
| This article explores the role attitude plays in the workplace. It does not delineate between small operator owned businesses and large corporates, for the very reason that attitude exists in each one of us, and has a major impact on motivation, satisfaction and ultimately performance at work. Points to consider are how our personal attitude impacts on others, and how we can begin to grow this in our team members. Techniques are then given to support that. Impetus is also given to people whose negativity is playing havoc at work and impacting on other team member's. This article is worth reading if you are leading people, or simply if you want to feel happier in your place of work.
